DRAMATIC NOTES.

If ability to keep an audience in con-
tinuouS roar of laughter for two solid
hours is true test of good comedy work
then ROLAND REED is entitled to the
name of comedian. 1t was large audi
ence that assembled in the Grand last
nighttO witness the production of Hum
bug" and from the time the play opened
until the curtain dropped on the final act
there was no relaxation of merriment.
"Humbug" is a cleverly constructed
comedy, the plot being so ingeniOuSly
woven together that each amusing COM
plication only WhetS the desire to
know what the final unTaveling will be.
Mr.. REEDS acting does not eVince so
much dramatic strength and culture as
some others who lead in comedy roles,
but it is characterized by such uniform
ease and pleasing humOr as to make it
thoroughly enjoyable. In personal APP
pearance Mr.. REED resembles the late
JOHN L. RAYMOND, and there is also a
striking similarity in his style of work.
MIR. REED has the advantage of being
more graceful man than RAYMOND, and
has.the happy faculty of throwing his
humOr into his movements. Comedy is
written in every feature of the face, and
is visible in every movement of his
body.
Mr.. REED has not followed the exam
pie of some of the star actors in these
days of interstate commerce laws of at
tempting to Offset the additional eX-
penSe of railroad travel by reducing
the expenses of his company in en-
ploying a cheaper grade of actors for
support. On the contrary, he has as
fine support as a star comedian could
oil xrrith In,
of the company is an artist.
Miss ALICE HASTINGS, who has 1e-
taken her old place as Mr.. REEDS
leading lady, is still the same finished
actress and woman of commanding
stage presence that she was in the days
when last seen here. Miss BESSIE
HUNTER played the part of Mrs. Judge
Shaw in "Humbug" with exquisite art.
The brightest SOubrette that has been
seen on st. Paul stage for many a long
day is Miss ANNIE LEWIS, who imper-
Sonated Nellie Shaw. Miss LEWIS is
young and handsome and possessed of
all the chic and Yivacity of an ANNIE
PIXLEY.
Mr.. REEDS songs and piano recitals
caught his audience square in the ribs,
and tickled them too. The duet with
Miss LEWIS, at the close of the second
act, caught triple encore.
Tonight, THE Woman Hater," with
the prospect of a crowded house.
The advance sale of seats for the
Boston Ideal engagement next week
will open at the Grand box office this
morning. The repertoire for the week
will be: Monday evening, Daughter
of the Regiment" Tuesday evening
and Thanksgiving matinee, "VictOr, the

sought after. Many were there who
knew not one another, and i'll every di-
rection quite frequently could be seen
small groups going through the stately
form of the introduction, and an instant
later the seat occupied by the fair
one was vacant, while through the
gay assemblage one could catch
brief, fitting glances of her
form as she moved gracefully
through the waltz. Such are the won
derful results of the much-admired
safeguard the Introduction, which has
held full sway for untold ages.
Throughout the large corridors were
many secluded spots for brief tete-a-
teteS, and abrupt turnings shutting out
the glance of the ball room afforded
many an opportunity for blissful little
nothings which. if told, would lose
their fragrance, and in these quiet hooks
the grim walls undoubtedly heard
sweet, superficial words breathed soft
and quickly into confding ears, and
which. when analysed, would be found
to contain naught of interest to any save
those particular two. And here
near the friendly protecting
mantle of darkness undoubtedly
many rosy cheek found a convenient

THE ANOKA CASE.
Not Evidence Enough Found to
Hold Defendants for Murder.

Special to the Globe.
Herman Flicker, the suspected murder
ers of DR.. William Brown, of Fridley,
have been given their freedom. At
closed and Justice Hughes said: 81 do
not find sufficient evidence to admit of
my holding longer these prisoners. and
| order their discharge" The first wit
ness called this morning and the third
for the defense was III. l.. Frost, editor
of the Anoka Democrat. He said he
was present at the cOroner'S inquest
and took notes. He heard Herman
Flicker swear at the inquest that he did
not enter the barn with Brown Oh the
day the tragedy occurred. This was
the same as Cotton and Eastman, the
first two witnesses for the defense, tes-
titled last night in direct opposition to
DR.. Locke, who claimed he SAID he was
in the barn with Brown and saw him
pass out of the back door and yard lead
ing a calf. The defense endeayOred
to prove from the first and all along that
Brown received his fatal wound from
the calf or stone near by where he fell
or some other unknown means outside OF
Flcker's premises, or that death re-
suited from apOpleXy, while the prose-
cution alleged that the wound was made
before leaving the Flicker barn yard.
The dead mans clothes worn on the day
of his death were shown covered with
blood. George III. Wyman in summing
up the evidence for the defense brought
his eloquence to bear upon the want of
proof of the prosecution for the state
ments and Surmises made, and laid par
ticular stress on the terrible inpenetra-
BILE mystery which envelopes the case.
The prosecution had not connected
William Flicker with the case in any
way, and failed to prove a single fact
against Herman, the son. and he asked
for dismissal of both defendants. JUS
tice Hughes during the prolonged argu-
ments had ample time to weigh the pros
and cons of the case. The acquittal of
both prisoners surprised many, but after
sober second thought gives general sat
isfaction, and the justice is commended
for his decision.

MORMONS DISCIPLINED.

They have rather a rough way of
dealing with the Mormon question down
in Alabama, but it is an effectual way.
Mob law is not in the least commenable
on general grounds. but the application
the SOuthernerS have made of it in
treating local MOrmonism has its good
points, if indeed it is not worthy of
adoption elsewhere.
Mormon elders appeared and began
the work of making prOselytes. The
people became aroused, and, after hav-
ing had their warnings disregaIded.
SOundly thraShed the venerable polyga-
mists and gave them a few hours to
leave the country. 1t is needless to say
the hint was taken, and Alabama is free
from their presence. In its treatment
of the Mormon question in Utah the
government might gain an idea or two
from the Alabama method, modifica-
ton of which would. in all probability,
have the desired effect.
Since moral suasion, joined to a mild

THE BROTHERHOOD WINS.
The Base Ball Players Force a
Recognition From the League
Bosses.

Special to the Globe.
New YORK, Nov. 1.-THE National
Base Ball league delegates resumed
their sessions at the Fifth Avenue hotel
this morning. The first thing taken up
was the percentage system. The De-
troit clubs proposition of 80 per cent,
or 500 of the gate receipts if they did
not exceed the latter figure, was re-
jected by vote of to 3. At the after
noon session II. III. SOdin, of the Boston
club, proposed that the league pay 25
per cent to the visiting club and
guarantee of $50. This was agreed
to, after a hot wrangle, by a
claim for half of the gate receipts of the
game played in New York Sept. 5 la
Dor day), was decided in their favor. By
this move the PhiladelphiaS are also in
pocket, as they played in Boston on the
day above named. The delegates de-
cided to send for the brotherhood CON-
mittee, but to not recognize them as an
organization. Mr.. Sage was sent to in
vite the brotherhood to meet the league,
and a recess was taken until $50 p. m.
At $50 the brotherhood committee was
admitted to the convention accom-
panied by their lawyer, Mr.. Black
hurst. The meeting was thrown
open to the press. The players de-
manded that a committee be appointed
to confer with them, and after short
fight Messrs. Rogers, of Philadelphia;
Spalding. of Chicago, and Day, of New
York, were named as such committee
and the convention adjourned until to-
morrow, subject to the call of the
chair to receive the report of the com
mittee. The two committees met i'm
mediately and had an hours talk.
RESULTS OF THE DAY.
President Young announced the fol-
lowing results of tO-day's sessions: Sec
ton 81, upon which the whole day was
spent, by compromise on all sides, was
amended as follows: Each club shall
have exclusive control of its own
grounds, but the home club shall pay to
the visiting club for each championship
game played by it on said grounds Is per
cent of the receipts for general admis-
sion, provided, however, that when such
% percentum shall be less than $3.50, the

elected president, and W. A. Nimiek, of
Pittsburg: f. K. StearnS, of Detroit: a.
HI. Soden, of Boston, and w. F. Hewitt,
of Washington, were chosen directors.

mittee: On Schedule-Nimick,o of Pitts
burg; StearnS. of Detroit, and Reach, of
Philadelphia. On Joint Playing Rules
-Spalding, of Chicago; ROgerS.of Phila-
delphia; Day, of New York. The spe-
cial agreement with Indianapolis,
by which it is bound not to re-
lease certain players, was continued
for one year. The following resolution,
introduced by MI. Spalding, was
adopted: Resolved, That the league
members of the board of arbitration be
instructed to vote in favor of permit
ting minor leagues to protect their clubs
and reserve their players under such
rules and conditions as said board may
deem proper. The following reso-
luton by Mr.. Rogers was adopted:
''Resolved, That the sense of this
league is that section 81 of the league
constitution requires the payment to
visiting clubs of so per cent of gate adj
missions on state holidays, made so by
law. prior to the playing of games ON
such days." This resolution ends the
dispute regarding games in New York
and Boston on labor day, Sept. 5, and
requires Boston to pay Philadelphia
about S1,700. and New York to pay
Washington about LOO.

1t looks as if the restoration of ma
tional amity between the sections was
complete success when the women of
the North and the South get together,
as they did at Nashville i'll the temper
ance convention, and wave the pine and
and palmetto in unity. 1t was the most
emotional national love scene that has
yet been pictured, beating the GORDON
MORGAN kiss episode all hollow.
-
A woman is the hardest thing in the
world to harmonic. Reconstruction in
the South after the war would have
been an easy task if it hadn't been for
the women. And it is also true that
their sisters in the North have had a
full hand in keeping sectional bitter
ness alive. If the war had been con-
Quoted by the women of the two see
lions it probably would not have termi-
mated short of humiliation. But when
the women once become harmOnized
they are the most harmonious beings in
the world. The Nashville incident is
an illustration in point. Now that the
female mind has been turned in the di-
rection of restoring national harmony
the bloody shirt will have to vanish.

On that Japanesy screen,
And wondered, should the thing shut up,
What visions might be seen.
And as he thought intently
OF bric-a-brac most rare,
A tiny hole upon that screen
Revealed the secrets there.
He fainted-then recovered
His face turned sky-blue pink;
The spell had passed-his dream was

agree with the GLOBE that Barnes has not

want with COrbet or even old Joe Quest? The
latter is valuable only as field captain. Where
does he intend to use these men, as they,
